What do people make of his punching technique? Tarver must have seriously heavy hands because he seems to stun Glen Johnson with random, weird punches. There isn't really a transition into a lot of those shots but he has enough to knock him onto his heels consistently. One thing I do say though is he wastes his stance a lot. He uses the awkwardness of it but to not use an effective southpaw jab is kind of criminal. Not even a bit. All he thinks about is feinting it for a left hand, its not a weapon in itself.
